Another year lost.
A heart aches
as longings permeate
hollows of regrets undying.
Heaving winds, haunted whispers,
silvering chimes of a faded song.
The glisten of a promised hope
silhouettes of a pledge divine.
A lover’s aubade, its rising sun
awakens the spirit within.
With teardrops upon her mended quills,
she spreads her silken wings.

Lovely poem : )
Thank you, Simon. 🙂
Beautiful image of taking wing, spreading of soft silken wings — the poet as the Phoenix bird. A pleasure to read!
Luvz it! Happy New Year from Greece!
Happy New Year! 🙂
When the world is busy partying, we are busy reflecting. Sigh.. 😛

Beautiful picture with the poem……every day is a new chance – a re-do, modification, re-start…..we are resilient and can handle anything we set our minds to – including changes. May the new year bring POSITIVE changes…..for all of us.
Hugs, Pam (and Sammy too)
You are absolutely right. Best wishes in the new year from Samantha and me! 😀
